Significant Parts To Inspect

To evaluate what needs to be repaired or replaced, inspect your vehicle. Always look at these significant parts for damage and functionality:

• Fluids – Motor oil, coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and windshield wiper fluid need to be clean and at the correct level.
• Windshield Wipers – Noisy and streaking windshield wipers are obnoxious and hazardous.
• Air Filters – Whether it’s an engine or cabin filter, their purpose is to protect the internal parts (motor or people) from outside debris and toxin damage.
• Headlights & Taillights – Lights allow you to communicate with other drivers on the road through signaling, braking, and even in oncoming traffic (i.e. flashing high beams).
• Tires – Having the correct tire pressure and continual tire rotations, will provide you with better handling and even wear on all sides of your tires.
• Brakes – Brake fluid, pads, and rotors must work together to stop efficiently.
• Belts & Hoses – Keep an eye out for any cracking, splitting, or fraying of the edges of your car’s belt and hose. Similar to brakes, these cause performance issues like overheating, dead battery, and/or strange leakage.

Ultimately, if you experience any shaking when steering, screeching noises when braking, or decreased performance, bring it in for servicing as soon as possible! We recommend getting these services done between every 5,000 and 10,000 mile mark, depending on what mileage you have. Make sure to check or get topped off before heading out on a long trip. When you provide consistent maintenance, your vehicle thanks you in the long run with smooth drives and minimal to no costly repairs!
